Upgrade 11.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.6 which Oracle BI Product Installer?

Question

I have read posts that exactly deal with this question
Upgrade 11.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.6
but they point to Patch 13742915: Patch 11.1.1.6.1 Oracle Business Intelligence
as the installer I will need for the OBIEE patching from 11.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.6
When I read the read me however, it states quite clearly
Customers who are currently using a version earlier than Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 11.1.1.6.0 should not apply this patch.
So where can I find the correct intaller for 11.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.6?
Or do we simply go to Oracle downloads and grab all of the disks then state "software only" ??
Thanks.

Hi,
1. Upgrade JDK to 1.7
windows 7 some times getting issues on jdk 1.7 so please use jdk1.6.0_29/jrockit 1.6.0_32 bit version..its working fine..
2. Upgrade WebLogic Server (Patch 13529623) from 10.3.5.0 to 10.3.6 using WebLogic Server 10.3.6 Upgrade installer
Both (weblogic 10.3.5/6)versions are working fine in obiee11.1.1.6.0 ..its upto you.
3. Execute OBIEE install 11.1.1.6 and perform a software only install
for the software only installtion its same as obiee11.1.1.6.0 (please make sure: weblogic install via cmd prompt
E.x: just go to java path pin
C:\java\jrockit-jdk1.6.0_29-R28.2.2-4.1.0\bin>java -D64 -jar D:\OBIEE111160\wls1
